  • I’ve got fedora and I have no idea what version it runs. Must be the same for ubuntu/mint. You just let it auto update and don’t care about it anymore

    Edit: reading other comments shows that people recommend waiting. I don’t get it. Just install it now and update in a couple of days. Even if it was tomorrow, I wouldn’t wait. On fedora updates happen in the background, maybe I’m spoiled.




  • You compare a machine that a vendor has prepared for windows to you preparing the pc for linux. It sounds like you did the setup. Alternatively, you could’ve paid someone to do that job for you. You could’ve bought a framework laptop with linux. It would work out of the box without any issues. And if there is one, you can blame framework.

    Because I had issues with the distros I was using, I distro jumped. If the distro is perfect, there is little reason to jump. Ever since jumping onto fedora silverblue I don’t do anything with the OS anymore. It just works. I mainly install flatpaks. Did you try a live usb with some distros before deciding upon ubuntu studio? You chose one niche distro and to me it sounds like you judge about all distros.

    A distro is just a package manager and a set of settings and apps pre selected by someone. If those settings don’t work out for you, it might be the wrong distro.









  • The phones are probably still working. New battery and touchscreen and someone will be happy with it.

    To the normal user it is e waste because it’s an old apple phone. It doesn’t matter how much you get for it. Just get rid of it so that someone can use it or strip it apart for its parts. And most importantly, to get it out of your sight.
